The headline is misleading. Kickstarter expects to provide more funding overall than the NEA, but not all of Kickstarter is arts projects.

- mcherm 15y agoKickstarter provides for the following categories: Art, Comics, Dance, Design, Fashion, Film&Video, Food, Games, Music, Photography, Publishing, Theater, and Technology. Every one of those except "Technology" strikes me as art, and even a few of the technology projects. So while Kickstarter may not be all arts projects, it is primarily arts projects.
